Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

A 2.4 GHz analog cordless phone from Phonemate, the PMP-3850 comes with a number of useful features, including caller ID/call waiting capability. The PMP-3850 can store up to 40 numbers in its caller ID memory, while the speed dial feature lets you quickly dial one of 20 preset numbers. An auto-scan feature automatically detects the best channel available, and handset controls allow you to easily adjust the phone's volume settings to your liking.

A page button on the base makes finding a lost handset quick and painless, while the menu-driven handset LCD screen lets you access the phones features in either French, English, or Spanish. A redial button lets you easily call the last outgoing number, and both tone and pulse dialing modes are provided in case you need to switch to one or the other.

The PMP-3850 is headset compatible (a belt clip is provided for hands-free operation) and is wall-mountable, saving on valuable counter space. A voicemail message indicator lets you know when you have messages waiting, while a low battery indicator lets you know when to return the phone to its base for recharging. The NiMH battery has a talk time of up to five hours, with a standby battery life of up to five days. The PMP-3850 is backed with a one-year warranty on both parts and labor.

I bought this phone thinking it would be a good phone. Unfortunately, I was very mistaken. The reception is terrible. And, not to mention I only dropped the phone on the floor once and the LCD screen pixels are almost totally gone. I can only read a few of the pixels that are left. The problem is that I can not make out an actual word out of the whole screen. This is a horrible phone. Stay away from this phone. Sorry Phonemate.

Phone was dead on arrival. What good are design and features if execution produces a totally non-working product? I'd give it zero stars if I could.
